I really like that answer to the Goddess/Sharella question. It sounds like getting a figure of Sharella that's perhaps based on the woman with the bow on Megator's packaging art may not be entirely out of the question!

I'm not happy. It didn't answer the question. I asked why the two were combined into one character. Saying I'll have to wait until IF a Sharella figure is made to learn about her past tells me nothing. Particularly since this was a behind the scene/marketing question not a bio background question.

"How I loathe heroes! Always getting in the way and acting so... so... heroic!"

THE NAMES OF THE 5 DIMENSIONS! SWEET! I thought FOR SURE the answer would be "You'll have to wait for more bios to be released to find that out!" As for where Trolla fits in, the only thing I can think of right now is that it's kind of like Heaven since it's Timeless?

I thought it did. What I took from it was that he told us that Sharella is the one who trained He-Ro (just like was always understood) but that that was not the end of her journey and that she eventually became the Goddess, just like becoming Captain of the Royal Guard is not the end of Teela's journey since she is destined to become The Sorceress Of Grayskull.

And regarding answer 5, HOW BADASS are The 4H that they just go RIGHT into sculpting?! They rule so hard.

King Tycho: Many fans are unhappy with the way our opinions are tabulated. In particular, the SDCC "voting sessions". Fans at SDCC are not representative of fans as a whole. Wouldn't it be preferable to handle all fan input through polls and feedback online, on sites such as Mattycollector and He-man.org? (A perfect example is the flocking of Panthor, where every poll online reveals that a vast majority of fans want him to be flocked)[/I]

We know fans all over the world want to share ideas about the line, and the best way to share is by posting and talking about the line on the web and talking to us at conventions. We do indeed read a lot of threads on various message boards. We aren’t always posting, but we’re always reading!

We will continue to give SDCC fans special votes. This is all part of what makes going to SDCC special. And as for the Panthor, we may indeed release a second flocked version of him in the future, but the initial release will be unflocked as fans at SDCC requested.

It is unfortunate that Mattel is adopting this idea of let a small group of people decide on big decision like this one. Also is extremely disappointing that Mattel seen so normal re-issue an item just because they made it wrong the first time, (He-Man, Skeletor, probably Teela and now Panthor).

It kills me how they keep insisting that the fans voted for Panthor to be unflocked at SDCC when everybody that posts on here that went to SDCC said that the majority voted for flocked. Plus, if one watches the SDCC on youtube, they can see the same thing.

Correction to quesiton 4. I've emailed Val to correct this on the main page.

The Void is not one of the 5 dimensions. This should be replaced with the Timeless Dimension. The Void is a seperate prison state, not one of the 5 realms.

Sorry for the confusion. Our entertainment team made a boo boo answering this question.

That's because that is how the vote went down, period. At the end of the day, the majority of fans in that room at SDCC voted for no flocking. The vote was close, but it was in favor of no flocking. If the majority of fans said flocking, we would go with that, but at the end of the day, we're going with how the fans at SDCC voted.

And not everyone who posts here has claimed it was the opposite. I've seen a lot of posts where fans who were at the show verified the correct vote.

I thought you said you weren't doing the flocking on Panthor because it was too difficult.

We will look at online fan voting, but in this case we are going with the SDCC vote. Getting to vote on aspects of the line is part of what makes the convention special for those who attend.

Surely there are better ways to reward convention goers than that?

A lot of the people who attend the Q&A panel may have zero interest in MOTU, since it's shared by the Ghostbusters Q&A. Why should non-MOTU fans get to vote on MOTU related issues and not the dedicated He-Fans at the.Org?

You guy vote on tons of stuff! Why do you think we are doing Adora and Goddess figures, because you demanded it!

This particular issue went to SDCC. But online fans still have a ton of influence.

I have never been to a con in my life, but I have to agree with Toyguru on this issue. I believe the introduction of the white mailers, increased production runs on figures, reissuing of past figures are all examples of movements that began online that Mattel listened to and implemented. I am sure there are others as well that I can not think of off the top of my head. For the record, I hope we get two different versions of Panthor during the "MotU:C" line's run. As an Aussie "MotU", "Batman", "DCUC", "JLU", "Ghostbusters", "TMNT", "Marvel" fan, etc I keep promising myself that one day I will make the trip and attend a con.
One Day.

Take Care,

Mattel please, buy the He-Man and She-Ra cartoons from Entertainment Rights. If you owned Both Filmation related "MotU" cartoons, plus "NA" and "MYP" cartoons, you would be able to distribute any or all 4 cartoons to Television in the lead up to another relaunch or a live action movie. Plus, you could include Filmation and "NA" animated characters in "MotU:C"!
